Prayer for the Potty Training Mother

Posted by Michelle under: Potty Training; Prayer; .

Here it is:

“Help the mommy to see evidence that the child is about to poop.”

Today after catching David before an , inspecting a large specimen spin away, and later rejoicing in the two-candy award, I asked David, “It’s a lot more fun to poop in the toilet, isn’t it?”

My dear son replies, “No, it’s not.”

To which I stubbornly repeated, “It’s a lot more fun when we poop in the toilet,” and to my relief, David’s eyes get a little glassy, and he agrees with me. Child-conditioning at its finest. We may be successful yet. (Update: the candy reward has suddenly become of interest. We’ll see how long it lasts!)
